I've been trying to open the door,
To the secret of my destiny.
Every new road I think is the one,
Seems to lead right back to me.

I've looked for a way to be wiser;
A way to be strong
Now I see the answer was hiding in me all along.

And I'm ready to fly,
Over the sun.
Like a rocket to heaven
And I'm ready to soar
Right through the sky
Never dreamed I'd find something,
To lift me so high.
I've always had wings.
But I wasn't ready to fly.

Restless, hopeless, and misunderstood,
Like so many others I know.
So busy trying to keep holding on,
When I should've been letting go.

I was given the gift of finding,
The spirit inside me.
But I never really imagined,
All I could be.

And I'm ready to fly,
Over the sun.
Like a rocket to heaven
And I'm ready to soar
Right through the sky
Never dreamed I'd find something,
To lift me so high.
I've always had wings.
But I wasn't ready to fly.

The answer to all of my wonder,
Is right in my hands.
Now it's time for me to discover,
All that I am.

And I'm ready to fly,
Over the sun.
Like a rocket to heaven
And I'm ready to soar
Right through the sky
Never dreamed I'd find something,
To lift me so high.
I've always had wings.
But I wasn't ready to fly.

I've always had wings.
Now I'm finally Ready to Fly.
